Ok, so this isn't my usual thing but I thought it would be an interesting experiment. You have no idea how long I spent trying to make this work as a real sonnet. The Swan Queen is not always obvious but it is there. The idea is that it centres on the unacknowledged chemistry that the two women share. It's from Regina's point of view and is about what she feels about this Miss Swan.
Miss Swan – A SQ Sonnet of Season 1
You are to me but one more enemy.
You flare within the crowd of those I hate,
A scratch, so pure, that is infecting me,
My blood and heart. Pink lips tie me to fate.
Your death does reel inside my head. Blonde hair
That glowing, blots out my sunlight and green
Your eyes that penetrate my skin with care
And sicken me, like thoughts of love obscene.
For while you try to steal my son, I'll curse
Your name, Miss Swan. And each attempt will drive
Passion anew from me to you. Disperse,
Or, else, all love, all hope will cease to live.
My broken curse leaves me in desertion.
At last, my dear, expose my affectation.
Don't hesitate to give me your opinions and thank you for reading.
